Study: BMW drivers are UK's angriest motorists :D

I just came back from the states on Thursday, our driving agression is nothing compare with the Floridians. People honk at each other and make rude gestures all the time + no one ever lets you out from a junction + they cut you off when they see you looking to change lane. Trust me the UK is a bit more civilised that article is bullsh!t, i would have placed Audi drivers at number 1.
 
Thing is BMW are a more affordable car now so a lot more on the road had they done this test 10 years ago may have been a different result.

Agree on Van drivers i travel to work at 5.30am and while i am waiting for my bus i see a fair few van drivers driving at very high speeds in built up areas and jumping red lights if someone was to pull out of a driveway it would be carnage :x :x

Regarding my BMW driving i tend to be more polite with my driving in the Z mainly because i do not want any damage and due to the BMW reputation but i still wont be bullied on the road and thats where having more power than my last car comes in handy plus i also find that a lot of people dont know what a Z4 is so you do not get treated with the same hatred of say a 3 series driver as they all recognise the 3 Series

Personally i find the worse drivers on the road tend to drive all makes of car but normally the base model with skinny tyres and weak brakes so not designed to be driven in the manner they drive resulting in accidents :x :x
 
Can't really see what the point of th e post is ............

Everybody knows that both BMW's and Mercedes leave the factory with built in right of way ...... :D
 
Many BMW are now company cars in UK (same as Audi). I think most company car drivers are more aggressive than owner drivers.
 
Saw the sort of BMW driver everybody hates today driving an M5 like a fucking loony down a small back road with kids about he then came out ahead of me further up the main road i was on accelerated very hard up the high st to sit on some poor sods ass then (this bit made me laugh and showed what sort of driver he was ) he turned into a side street accelerated very hard and as i glanced across he had only gone about 3 car lenghts to a paper shop :thumbsdown: SAD
 
that list means nothing. spend a day driving round Manchester with the complete f*%^*%$* idiots and you will find they drive all sorts of cars, most of which are Audi's not BMW's....
